2-3 years ago I was shocked at how high he had things in his portfolio priced. I believe most were higher than at Splash Page. You may be better served on the secondary market for his art n

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

That sucks. I've noticed that it seems Invincible is starting to turn some heads. I think the book has been under appreciated for years. I had a talk about it today at the comic shop. If you look at all the books being released today, you have to consider the main players, DC, Marvel, and Image. Out of all those books, Image has a handful of books where artists stick around for a long time. 2 of Kirkmans books, his most popular, have had the same artist for over 100 issues. Erik Larsen, same thing. That guys a beast! It doesn't surprise me that Ottley is heating up. I've been told that his convention commissions lists fill up before each show. My stuff has gotten around and I like to thing people recognize my collection, even Ottley himself. I'm hoping I can use that to hop on the list at Heroes.

Thanks, me too.

Out of nowhere yesterday, a fella off CAF emailed me if I wanted one of his Invincible OA pages for $20! I couldn't buy it fast enough. The page is actually from one of the books I have the OA cover, #30. Trying to establish myself as a prominent Invincible OA guy.
